LDAP Users import problem

[jdanielcano]

Hello there,

First of all, thanks for the great job you are doing with this tool, it is great and it has many and useful features.
I am trying to install the sysPass in the following way:

• Docker containers running in a Debian Jessie 8.7.
• SysPass application running in a Docker container using the SysPass version 2.1.2.17031401.
• The database MySQL 5.5. I use the Hosting option cause our database server is in a different machine, so we connect with a dedicated user into the database.

The problem:

• Every time we try to import the users from LDAP I got this output:

LDAP users import finished
Imported users : 0/200
Errors : 0 

I checked the logs and there is no errors, even in the database logs there is anything weird or error. When I try to list the users in the LDAP configuration, I can retrieve all the users from the LDAP and I can "navigate" or list all of them, but the import is not working.

I am doing something wrong?

Thanks a lot in advance.
Cheers,
Daniel.

Hello Daniel,

I'm very glad that you found it useful ;)

Regarding your issue, it could be related to the LDAP Login Attribute which is used to get the users login when performing the import, so if this attribute is not set in the LDAP user data, the user won't be imported.

Cheers!

Hello!

Thanks for the quick answer!

Actually the login attribute exist, in our case the UID, and I am selecting that option during the import process...

Thanks again!
Cheers,
Daniel

I forgot to mention that the username and login shouldn't be blank so if the user login is got, the username could be the cause.

Sorry...and the username is got either from displayname or fullname attributes

[jdanielcano]

Ok, then that is the cause, for the user name we use the CN and not the displayname or fullname.
Probably this could be another feature as it is now for the login? I mean, to be able to chose from which attribute the username could be taken?

Thanks a lot!
Cheers,
Daniel

Hi again,

I add the attribute cn in the code and it is working, if you agree, I will make a pull request to add this attribute in the 2 files needed to add the attribute as a possibility to be used as username.

Thanks again.
Cheers,
Daniel
